Reviews and praise

Vášová is a rare phenomenon in Slovak literature. She never gave in to the mandatory socialist realism, never brought in any simplified or falsely optimistic visions of the world. From the very beginning-stubbornly and consistently - she presented sensitive projects concerned with issues of civilization, ecology, or science-fiction. There she mapped interior existential situations, discussed problems of ethics, the needs of sophisticated civilization, the mutual sensitivity and perceptions of partners, their understanding and real "reading of the soul of man".

    Her charming, poetic, adventurous, fantastic and otherwise organized stories emerge as central compositional underpinning for the finely developed parts of the usually simple, &quot;verifiable&quot; idea. Therefore the conclusion of a story is less important than the echo, or the literary destiny of her characters and through them the newly acquired knowledge of life. That is why the age of V&aacute;&scaron;ov&aacute;`s readers is of lesser importance.</p>
